An Adventurous Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing An Adventurous Birthday Card using Dwarf 2 by Mo’s Digital Pencil. 

A good friend had his birthday and this was the card that I sent him. He loves to roleplay going on adventures and finding hordes of treasure. So, I thought Dwarf2 would make him a fun card!

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided I would make a fun faux shaker card and fill it will gold, copper, and silver sequins to represent a treasure hoard.  I coloured the dwarf in muted colours with my Copic markers that would suit a miner digging for gold.

The Bo Bunny paper I had in my stash and suited my adventuring theme.

I die cut a piece of Basic Black card stock with a stitched rectangle die. Then, I embossed it with the Foundry Folder and rubbed brushed iron wax onto it. I loved the way it brought out the details of the metal pieces and rivets to look like a metal door! This was the perfect backdrop for my dwarf!

For the sentiments, I heat embossed them in white on Basic Black card stock and then die cut them with stitched rectangles too. Next, I rubbed the brushed iron wax on them as well to match the door.

The only embellishments were to glue a few sequins to the clear envelope that created my faux shaker card.

I love the Dwarf stamps by Mo’s Digital Pencil! In fact, I used Dwarf 6 to create another card that we gave to the same friend a few years ago.
